The TEM examination showed that the ZnO/MgO nanoparticles annealed at 400, 600, 800, and 1000 degrees C had a crystalline wurtzite structure. The size of the particles was in the range between 10 and 100 nm. The blue shift of the CL emission of the samples after annealing at temperatures higher than 600 degrees C originated from an increase in the MnxZn1-xO band gap and the quantum confinement effect resulting from the small size of the particles.
